With a decisive win and cover over Saint Louis on Saturday, Michigan seized the lead of the men’s national championship odds board, improving from +370 to +340 to be the new leader over Arizona, which maintained its odds at +350 and will look to survive Utah State on Sunday.
Duke saw a slight improvement from +450 to +425 with its own decisive win over TCU, while Florida dropped slightly from +750 to +800 while dormant.

Among the biggest movers was Purdue, which made a leap from 22-1 to 16-1 despite not playing on Saturday. The Boilermakers benefited from a Texas (200-1) upset of Gonzaga, creating a potentially easier path to the regional finals for Purdue, who carries significant liability at some sportsbooks. Other improvers from Saturday to Sunday include Houston (+950 to +850), Illinois (18-1 to 17-1) and Michigan State (50-1 to 30-1).
For those teams’ odds to shorten, some had to lengthen. The most notable was UConn, a public futures pick that will take on UCLA on Sunday, but saw its odds worsen from 25-1 to 30-1 since Saturday. Iowa State (25-1 to 30-1) and St. John’s (40-1 to 50-1) were also among the teams to slip down the board.
